Basic Gear for Public Service
Manage episode 345113367 series 2602786
Just over two weeks ago Hurricane Ian devastated Sanibel Island and southwestern Florida. It caused tens of billions of dollars of damage and killed more than 100 people. Arc Thames, W4CPD, the Section Emergency Coordinator of ARRL's Northern Florida Section and Emergency Coordinator of Santa Rosa County Florida, passed traffic during the storm and shares some of his experiences. He discusses gear for ARES deployments (An HT is just fine!) and what you need to know before going out in the field.
For more information on prepping for EmComm, check out the article, "Basic Gear for Public Service" in the September/October 2022 issue of On the Air magazine.
